Madonna Rafael Pavarotti* Soon after Madonna joined Sabrina Carpenter onstage at Coachella for a surprise performance, the Material Girl officially released her new song “I Feel So Free,” off her upcoming album Confessions II.
“I Feel So Free” first debuted on iHeartRadio’s Pride station on an hourly basis Friday and was serviced to “select DJs and clubs” before arriving on streaming services after midnight, shortly after Madonna appeared with Carpenter onstage to perform “Vogue” and “Like a Prayer.” The track was accompanied by a trancelike visualizer:
“Don’t be a vibe kill. Come on meet me on the dance floor,” Madonna sing-speaks on the track. “That’s why I like to go dancing. Safety in numbers.”
A press release heralded “I Feel So Free” as the “first taste” of music off Confessions II — the sequel to Madonna’s 2005 LP Confessions on a Dance Floor — but not the lead single, which is still forthcoming. For Confessions II, Madonna reunited with Stuart Price, who produced the majority of the Grammy-winning 2005 album; both Madonna and Price are credited as producers on “I Feel So Free.”
“People think that dance music is superficial, but they’ve got it all wrong,” Madonna said in a statement of Confessions II. “The dance floor is not just a place, it’s a threshold: A ritualistic space where movement replaces language.”
